Does the skin get loose after liposuction?

It is one of the most frequently asked questions regarding liposuction. Many people planning to undergo a liposuction procedure ask a plastic surgeon this question.

 

 

As you are aware liposuction is a cosmetic procedure through which a plastic surgeon removes deposits of fat from a particular part of the body.

 

 

As far as the question is concerned, skin loosens after liposuction surgery. Why is that? It is because space appears between muscular coat and skin.

 

 

However, the good thing is that you can prevent skin sagging by following post-surgery instructions.

 

 

 

 

The most effective ones include exercising, a balanced diet, and wearing a compression garment.

 

 

A compression garment helps and accelerates the healing process. Other than that, it plays an essential role in bridging that space between muscular coat and skin.

 

 

Usually, the doctor recommends wearing a compression garment for 3~6 months after the procedure.
